An overnight Ukrainian drone attack killed one person and injured around 10 others in the Russia-occupied southern Zaporizhzhia region, Moscow-installed authorities said Sunday.
A video posted on the Russian social network VKontakte overnight showed firefighters extinguishing a burning residential building that the drone reportedly hit.
"[There are] more than 10 injured people, and the body of a woman was found during the night," Vasylivka municipality official Natalia Romanichenko told TASS.
In Ukraine's Kharkiv region in the northeast, a Russian strike on the village of Velyka Babka wounded three people, authorities said.
"Russian forces carried out a targeted strike on emergency services last night," Ukraine's Emergency Service said Sunday on Telegram.
It said an initial drone strike set a house on fire and wounded three before a second Russian drone hit the fire engine sent to put out the blaze.
On the night of Friday to Saturday, 12 people were killed in Ukraine when Russia fired a volley of missiles and drones. At least 10 were killed in Kharkiv when a Russian missile struck a five-storey apartment building.
Over the past week, Russia has launched "nearly 1,750 attack drones, 1,530 guided aerial bombs, and 39 missiles against our people" Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said Sunday on social media.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
